The first exposure is madewith the same position of tube and patient as for a singleplate described on p. 56. (Figs. 28 and 29-A.) Thepatient is instructed to keep the head in exactly the sameposition for the two exposures, as any movement willinterfere with the stereoscopic effect. Care must alsobe taken to place the second plate in exactly the same posi-tion as the first, which is easily accomplished by means.

The first plate having been slid out fromunder the patients head and the second plate placed inthe same position, the tube is shifted three inches in to-ward the upright stand. In order for the central ray tostrike the second plate at the same point as in the first,it becomes necessary to change the aneie of the funnel 70 INTERPRETATION^ OF ROENTGENOGRAMS from 30 degrees to 17^ degrees from the vertical (Figs. 30 and 29-B). The second exposure is now made, exactlythe same time being given as in the first exposure. Afterdevelopment, the plates may, of course, be vieAved throughthe large Wheatstone stereoscope. If this instrument isnot available, lantern slides or prints can be made fromcorresponding parts of the two plates, and viewed verysatisfactorily through the ord
